CITY TEACHER'S TO TAXPAYERS AN OPEN ADDRESS TO THE VOTERS IN RELATION TO PROPOSED LEVY FOR AN AD VANCE OF SALARIES. A communication from the city teachers to the tax payers of Astoria: It is our wish that the taxpayers should fully understand our attitude toward the school board in regard to the increase of salaries so long prom- ised and so long delayed. With all due respect to the gentle men ot the ooard, we arorm that if at any time they had kindly given an answer, explain ing when they could comply with the expressed wish of the taxpayers, or they would apply the extra levy voted for that purpose to the increase of our salaries, this painful publicity would have been avoided. We, withVther workers for 'the highest interests of our fair city, know that anything detrimental to our schools is hurtful to the city; but an underpaid dissatisfied corps of teach ers is worse than the publican of the causes thereof. While it will not be necessary to go into the details ot the ditterent movements towards increased sal aries of which you are cognizant, and to which you have given your, sanc tion, still a summary of the.same will freshen your memories, and we hope will quicken action on your part to see that your determination as evinced by your voting an increased levy for the purpose of bettering the salaries, shall be carried out. Three years ago you will remember you signed a petition which was pre set! tel to the board authorizing them to grant the teachers a 20vper cent raise of salary. In answer to this authorized petition, the board allowed some of the teachers 10 per cent and others less. Acting on a suggestion emanating from the board that the matter should be brought up at the annual meeting of the taxpayers, we secured repre sentation at the regular meeting of December 18, 1907, where you voted a two-mill tax to be devoted espec ially to the increase of salaries. ' We considered it necessary to know definitely what action the board would take on this special levy, and addressed a communication to them asking this consideration. As no reply has been received, we address this communication to you, the taxpayers of Astoria, asking you to use your influence the influence of the power behind the throneto see that we are granted what you yourselves have voted.
